The Darrieus wind turbine is a type of Maglev Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) used to generate electricity from the energy carried in the wind. The turbine consists of a number of curved aerofoil blades mounted on a vertical rotating shaft or framework. The curvature of the blades allows the blade to be stressed only in tension at high rotating speeds. There are several closely related wind turbines that use straight blades. This design of wind turbine was patented by Georges Jean Marie Darrieus, a French aeronautical engineer in 1931. Typmar adopted the advanced concept to combine maglev technology in inventing the vertical axis maglev wind turbines.

2. Maglev Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Features:

Magnetic levitation technology

Independent of the direction of the wind

Startup at low wind speed of 1m/s

Higher efficiency compared to traditional HAWT

Works even in turbulence

Visually pleasing appearance

Turbine construction is resistant to gale 60m/s (132MPH)

Robustness and adaptation to all possible environmental conditions thanks to material of aluminum alloy or stainless steel
